I just upgraded my Glo from 2.1.5 to 2.5.1.

I would like to see better support for sideloaded epubs. I'm using Calibre to load my epubs as kepubs (since I like the chapter progress for kepubs).

I miss the total page number progress. The total time left is nice, but isn't very reliable. My current book has some stuff at the end (previews, author notes, ...), so the time remaining and progress are off.

Also, for the progress window, I would like to see all the chapters displayed, with an indicator for my current chapter. If this isn't doable, I would like to see the chapter progress include the current chapter when first activated.

And for the Aura, make the left and right arrows for the scrolling in chapter progress more defined, I couldn't tell when they were disabled. It looked more like a bug to me.

More granularity on formatting options: font size, margins, line spacing. Allow smaller line spacing. Allow smaller margins.

And provide an option for getting rid of the header and footer while reading.

And make the paper clip hole size the same for the Aura and Glo.

A quote from the Kobo web site:

... Kobo Glo's soft back in Kobo's signature quilt pattern is so comfortable in your hand, you’ll forget you’re holding a device!
I want the same comfort for the Aura. Actually, go back to the quilt pattern on the Touch. And use the tacky plastic/coating.
